James 1:12-16
121BlessedG3107 is a manG435 whoG3739 perseveresG5278 under trialG3986; for once he has 2beenG1096 approvedG1384, he will receiveG2983 3the crownG4735 of lifeG2222 whichG3739 the Lord 4has promisedG1861 to thoseG3588 who 5loveG25 Him.
13NoG3367 oneG3367 is to sayG3004 when he is temptedG3985, “6I am being temptedG3985 7by GodG2316”; for GodG2316 cannotG551 beG551 temptedG551 8by evilG2556, and He HimselfG846 does not temptG3985 anyoneG3762.
14But eachG1538 oneG1538 is temptedG3985 when he is carriedG1828 awayG1828 and enticedG1185 by his ownG2398 lustG1939.
15ThenG1534 9when lustG1939 has conceivedG4815, it givesG5088 birthG5088 to sinG266; and 10sinG266, when it has runG658 itsG658 courseG658, bringsG616 forthG616 deathG2288.
1611Do not be 12deceivedG4105, 13my belovedG27 brothersG80 and sisters.
